Background
Alcohol is the third leading cause of death in the world. The Alcoholics Anonymous decided to do something about it. And raise this issue in an actual bar. With the name of customers in Hand (obs.: it is common for bars in Brazil to collect first and last names as the bar tab is handed out at the entrance), we printed perfect replicas of household bills and handed to customers to stir up conversation. Inside, instead of the bill, it read: For others, this is a reality, the Bar becomes a second home. If you know anyone who suffers from this problem, please contact the AA.
Idea
Alcohol is the third leading cause of death in the world. We decided to use perfect replicas of household bills (with customer's names and the bar address) as media and at a popular bar, to convey the message that the bar does become the second home to an alcoholic.
